In the chaos of Dhaka traffic, one vehicle has quietly taken over: the battery-powered three-wheeler, often called the ‘Tesla’, not the sleek one from Silicon Valley, but the Bangladeshi kind.
May 1 and 2 gave us something rare. A proper show. Curated Cars wasn’t just another excuse to hang out and say, “Bro, my car faster.” This was for the real enthusiasts—the ones who actually know what a Jaguar S-Type is and don’t think a McLaren is just a footballer. So what did they do differently?
